Carpet Making?

    Lets make some carpets!                                   

P3m and ladies are learning to make Iranian carpets. Through this rare skill we hope this will be a great way for p3m and the women to help them make their own living. When a carpet is finished in a few months the woman could make up to $1000. P3m was given this opportunity through our friends Ahmad and Samy who are starting a new carpet making business. They heard about P3m and wanted to share this opportunity to those less fortunate, they are awesome. Thank God for them :) 

Today p3m had their first training session!! Wish them luck for the future sessions to come!

P3M House & Other news

   Whats going on in the P3M house?                    

It is a full house over at the P3M house :) So far 4 women and one child, including Wilda the cofounder of P3M is living there. Also the P3M staff has moved its office into the house, keeping everything together and connected. 

• Two of the women their are living with HIV that contracted from their late husbands. As they were showing signs of illness they had to let their families know. One family said come back when you don't look sick and the other said they will not except her at all. Thank God they found Medan Plus, who helps those living with HIV, that led them to P3M. A safe place for them to live now. One of the women also brought with her her Child Jeni, she is 6 years old healthy and full of life! That is Jeni in the picture above with Rani P3M staff at the P3M house/office.

• Meri has also moved in to the P3M house. If you remember, She came out of prostitution at the age of 64 when she met Wilda/P3M who helped her get out, she came to live with Wilda before they moved into the P3M house. Wilda and Meri have a very special bond, Wilda says Meri is like her second mother and that she won't live anywhere without her. 

They have all created this lovely community together having weekly meetings on who takes care of what in the house and daily chores. They also came up with the idea to sell clothes and cigarettes & snacks in the front yard to workers. They are very happy and grateful to be where they are. It is very sweet and heartwarming.

Please Help Support P3M with providing these women and hopefully more with a place to live. Check out this campaign for raising money. Every bit counts! Thank you so much for loving these people & P3M

   Outside of the House:                                          

P3M team is working hard trying to raise awareness in their community (Medan) about HIV/STDs, how to protect ones self as well as talking with the women giving them an option to leave. 
This week with P3M:

• HIV/STD testing in the Hotels/Brothels
• P3M staff always hard at paper work and going late passing out condoms and information about HIV/STDs and the risks of prostitution. Rani, Joseph and Musa what a great team!! 

Thanks for all the support! And GO P3M!!!

And one more thing:

Thank you Rachel Pryor and Jo Whitman you are badass and your efforts are helping to change lives! And thank you to all that pray and contribute to P3M!
